Answer:

[tex]Selling\ Price = 12b(1.55)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Cost\ Price = \$12[/tex]

[tex]Selling\ Price = 55\%\ more[/tex]

Required

Write an expression for the selling price for b birdbaths

This selling price for 1 birdbath is calculated as:

[tex]Selling\ Price = Cost\ Price + 55\% * Cost\ Price[/tex]

Substitute 12 for Cost Price

[tex]Selling\ Price = 12 + 55\% * 12[/tex]

Factorize:

[tex]Selling\ Price = 12(1 + 55\%)[/tex]

Express percentage as decimal

[tex]Selling\ Price = 12(1 + 0.55)[/tex]

[tex]Selling\ Price = 12(1.55)[/tex]

For b birdbaths, the selling price is:

[tex]Selling\ Price = 12(1.55) * b[/tex]

[tex]Selling\ Price = 12b(1.55)[/tex]

The options are not clear; However [tex]12b(1.55)[/tex] answers the question.
